It is awesome to know that we serve a God who can rebuke the
wind. Jesus said, “Peace! Be still!” and
then the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. Surely, Jesus can calm the
winds that blow in your life today. I am talking about those troubles that seem
to keep on forcing their way into your life like a perfect storm. Jesus can speak
those same words into your life “Peace! Be still!” and those winds must cease immediately.
You too can enjoy a great calm in your own life! Are you experiencing any
straight line winds right now? I am not talking about those winds that are meant for
us to grow. There are some winds that blow the leaves and help some trees carry
their seeds. There are other winds that disturb your sanity. You could have been rooted in the thoughts of having
a perfect life until an unforeseen storm comes your way. That storm may only rage for what may seem
like 10 minutes, but it could cause major damage to your thoughts of having a perfect
life. It is amazing on how something so strong
like a fully grown tree can be uprooted by the wind. A straight line wind could uproot
trees that were planted in the ground for years. So if you are a mature Christian,
then you might feel the effect of such winds from time to time. You must always
remember that Jesus can speak to any storm in your life and it must obey his
voice.
Mark 4:39
And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea,
“Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
Prayer:
Lord, I ask you to calm the winds in my life
Lord, let all of my unnecessary issues cease
Lord I pray that Peace be Still
So I can enjoy your peace that surpasses all understanding
I know my storms and straight line winds must obey your
voice
I ask those things in your name Jesus
Amen
